As a professional events company with highly vetted policies and processes, we conduct thorough testing to ensure the safety of our materials and their application. The Color Run has hosted more than 500 global events with more than four million participants and is committed to staging safe and secure events.
At the Finish Festival, the crowd will be involved in a color throw every 15 minutes to welcome new runners coming in. We provide two bags of color for each runner as you cross the finish line
The color does mostly wash out after the event. As with anything dirty, the sooner you wash it the better. We suggest wearing items that you wouldn’t mind getting colorful.
Most people bring some towels for the insides of their cars, or a change of clothes just in case.
The color powder used at The Color Run event is all certified non-toxic and free of any heavy metals. Our bright colors are a combination of cornstarch, baking soda, and FD&C dyes. As with any substance, you want to keep it out of your eyes and our color throwers make sure to aim low as you pass by. Some Color Runners opt to wear glasses or goggles for their eyes and use a bandana or dust mask for their mouths.
Our race photographers are generally fine shooting from a medium distance of 50 feet, but to be totally safe we always recommend covering cameras/phones with a protective dust wrap. Those colorful powder particles are sneaky and The Color Run is not liable for any damage that might be done to your camera!
The Color Run 5k is not a timed event. Runners tend to take their sweet time out there and we realized no one really cares about their speed. We suggest self-timing for anyone desiring a finish time.
If an event is held as advertised, we cannot issue refunds. The logistics of setting up and planning the event make it impossible. Just make sure you are good to go before signing up. If for some reason you can’t make it to race day, at least come to the Check-In Party, pick up your gear, and say hi to us!

If you end up not being able to attend the event, you can transfer your registration to another city (details in next question) in the same calendar year or for a small shipping fee we can mail you your participant kit if you are unable to pick it up at the Check-In Party.
We do allow transfers from city to city. As long as the transfer is within the same calendar year, the transfer is completed prior to the original event taking place and prior to the participant checking-in for the original event. Contact us here for further questions.
It’s totally up to what you and your doctor decide. The powder is all certified non-toxic. Â We recommend wearing sunglasses or goggles, and a bandana over your mouth and nose in the color zones just for extra protection.
